St. Regis Kuala Lumpur is dazzling up its mooncakes by tying up with crystal brand Swarovski for a crystal-studded trunk ahead of this year's Mid-Autumn Festival. While the brand declined to reveal the monetary value of the partnership, its spokesperson explained that diamonds have always played a significant role in the brand, as they are featured in the motifs and style of every St. Regis Hotels and Resorts globally. According to the spokesperson, this is a nod to Caroline Astor's love for diamonds and her jewellery collection. Caroline Astor is the mother of St. Regis founder John Jacob Astor IV.

The partnership first came about in 2019, where both parties brought to life a super mooncake trunk. According to St Regis., such a trunk was the "first-of-its-kind" in Southeast Asia, embellished with 307 golden shadow crystals. This year, its limited-edition Swarovski super mooncake trunk is designed with a unique diamond pattern that represents the brand's richness and luxury, embellished with 307 silk and silk shimmer Swarovski crystals.
